SUPERBOOTH 2024: Koma Elektronik - Chromaplane Electromagnetic Synth


video upload by sonicstate

"At Superbooth 2024, Chris showcased the Chromaplane*, an electromagnetic synthesizer developed with the support of *KOMA Electronic*. The instrument features 10 electromagnetic fields emitting from specific points on its surface, which are played using two pickup coils. The sound is detected by the coils, passing through a low pass filter and delay, creating a unique modulation effect. Additionally, the *Chroma Plane includes an envelope follower output and an external input for playing external audio sources.

The concept of the Chroma Plane originated from Chris's experience as a musician and visual artist, leading to the development of a smaller version of the instrument for live performances. After more than 100 concerts worldwide, Chris and KOMA are working towards making the Chroma Plane available as a commercial product in the coming months. Stay tuned to the Koma website for updates."

Passepartout Duo has been road testing the Chromaplane in their performance setup for a while, and now we’re finally at the last stages of development. In the next month, we’ll be revealing more information about this unique instrument, so…

…think about making some space in your studio!

Novation Summit | Moog Sub-37 - "Unmasking Clouds"


video upload by eM

"Another layering with Scott McAuley's patches SM Huge Wood on the Summit, and SM Woodster on the Sub - 37.

I was looking out of my window, looking at the mountains, seeing how the clouds are hovering and covering their peaks. It's a beautiful site from afar... there's an imaginable adventure in the distance. It would be different if I were there, if I were in those clouds, if I were climbing those mountains. Beautiful dreams are often seen from afar till you have to climb and find where you may not be able see the peak. Depending on whether you struggle to reach the top or be patient for the clouds to clear, you still must decide. Is this dream worth climbing for, is it worth waiting for. No matter the weather, whether you're climbing or waiting... decide is it worth it altogether? This beautiful dream from the window gaze."
